Talk:IBM High Level Assembler (HLASM)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] HLASM usage on mainframes

HLASM is also the abbreviation for the IBM 390 High-Level Assembler Language. This is probably the most common use of the abbreviation HLASM, at least among mainframers. See e.g. [[1]]. BTW this HLASM doesn't have traditional HLL features, but it does have a powerful macro language, which is often used to create HLL-like functions, e.g. IF, WHILE, etc.

I suggest HLASM should have its own page, and reference High-level assembler as a "See also". Alternatively, we could have a HLASM disambiguation page. Jpaulm 16:06, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
